Chapter 179 Reversal
"Master, please let me kill this person!"
After coming out, Amano Fist Guard looked resentful, as if he had been greatly insulted, pressing the handle of the knife with his hand.
As long as Duan Yu gave the order, he really dared to rush in and chop the fat pig.
"What does it feel like for an ants to show off his power to others?"
Duan Yu waved his hand indifferently: "As long as it doesn't bite you, why do you have to step on it?"
Speaking of this, he sneered again: "And... maybe it won't take long before this guy will beg me!"
He was very optimistic about the military operations of Chiyo Fujiwara who was rashly advancing Kisei and Ono County.
If there is a big failure, the entire war of anti-scenes will have huge ups and downs, and we have to win over all available power. At that time, Fujiwara Kyohide will have to beg for him.
"Hi, Lord said it!"
Although Amano Fist Guard didn't understand it very well, he did not refute it.
‘Just... am I that stupid? I sent troops to fight the Fujiwara family to death and help him to establish his throne, just to get a letter of thanks?’
Duan Yu looked back and sneered in her heart.
By next year, after I trained my elite troops, I will naturally come to this Izumo to do a business without any money.
Specifically, it is to plunder the population, food, and even gold and silver for transportation back.
Before, buying slaves was just a temporary measure. Who doesn’t like Cancan gold? Why waste it?
Just to send troops to the sky, you must have a name or a pretext.
Although Izumo was in chaos at this time, if foreign countries like Hai Song invaded, from the Daming vassal lords to the people and the wild people, they would definitely fight to the death.
Duan Yu doesn't want to end up like a pirate himself.
At this time, Izumo only had two largest forces, either Fujiwara or the Hei family.
'Once the other party makes a move to use the army to help suppress it, I will care about it and let it go in the Eastern Kingdom...'
After experiencing his initial assassination and provocation, the two sides were in a great battle, and it finally reached its true ripening and can be harvested!
...
Meanwhile, Jicheng County.
It was already late, and in a city, lights were on. Chiyo Fujiwara sat on the highest Tenshou Pavilion, drinking sake, which was quite a bit of a burnt smell.
At first, he led 20,000 troops to invade Jicheng County, which was very smooth.
The battle between Hengmen Mountain killed the tiger from the Eastern Kingdom and killed a large number of prisoners, which really caused heavy damage to the Ping family. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he led his troops into Jicheng County. He encountered almost no decent regular army resistance and occupied half of the county, with an unstoppable momentum.
But immediately, everything that happened next made him feel like he was trapped in the mud.
As the foundation of the Hei family and the old nest, Kiseen and Ono counties were managed like iron barrels, which was not only in the upper vassal lord samurai class, but also in the lower ranks.
In the eyes of those civilians, the Ping family ruled these two counties as normal as the sun rose from the east, and was extremely hostile to the invaders.
Even so, it's okay. Anyway, the people are snobbish, and as long as he still holds the hilt of the knife in his hand, the local people will not rebel.
But more importantly, among these two counties, the belief that the Qinghai Power has emerged is deeply rooted.
Who is the Qinghai Daquan? He is the family god of the Ping family, and his divine power is almost the fourth rank! In these two counties, almost every family believes in it, and the believers have more than 500,000!
It is extremely difficult for the lord to fan the people to die, but religious beliefs are OK!
Under the instigation of the priests of the Kiyomi Palace and the witches, a terrible "Ikki" (peasant rebellion uprising) broke out in the ruling area of Chiyo Fujiwara.
Farmers, peasant women, even elderly people, children... almost every leader is in a dilemma with the Fujiwara family.
Perhaps these people were not alone in their own military power, and ten thousand farmers were defeated by a thousand feet, but they did not fight head-on at all. Instead, they attacked the single warriors everywhere, engaged in "warrior hunting", and combined with bandits and bandits to attack the Fujiwara family's grain team everywhere.
This is still an occupied area, and in the Ono County ahead, there are more than 100,000 peasant soldiers gathered together.
Although 10,000 peasant soldiers are not scary, what if 100,000 or hundreds of thousands are equipped by the Ping family?
"Oh...it seems that I can't take Hirano Castle recently, so I can only temporarily quit the war!"
Chiyo Fujiwara poured himself a plate of wine and murmured.
It's so bad that everyone on the land is enemies of you, as if you've been rejected by the world.
More importantly, with Izumo's system, once the leader is frustrated, the following "allies" will immediately become ready to move.
In the Fujiwara family's army, half of them are supported by the vassal lords, and even Chiyo Fujiwara sometimes has no choice but to do anything to them. Just like in a company, each director has a similar status. Although he, a strong chairman, can seize real power, if he is forced, he can hold a board meeting and vote in person.
As strong as the fourth heavenly demon king Oda Nobunaga, he was in a state of great trouble when encountering such a large-scale Ikki. In the end, his subordinates changed and were burned to death in Honnoji.
At this time, Chiyo Fujiwara wanted to issue a massacre order directly, kill all the people of these two counties, or simply sell them to the sea as slaves!
"Mr. Master!"
At this time, several priests and witches in white swear came in and saluted respectfully.
"What's going on?"
Chiyo Fujiwara straightened his body and was refreshed.
He knew very well that this kind of Ikki is not scary, the most terrifying thing is the gods hidden under hundreds of thousands of people.
Although even the great gods with the fourth-grade divine nature cannot directly interfere in human wars, they can use the ghosts of human hearts to divide and win over the enemy camp.
The last reliance of the Pek family is their family god, and the great power of Qinghai appears!
"Please forgive me for your crime!"
A priest with shaved eyebrows and a face that looks like a goose egg, his forehead is pressed against the floor, and he apologized in a delicate voice: "The god who is shown in Qinghai Daquan is higher than the guardian saint of our family, and we are helpless..."
"Where is the Izumo royal family?"
Chiyo Fujiwara suddenly had some ominous premonition and rubbed his eyebrows.
"Every time the Dao Pavilion encounters great changes in the world, it will never escape the world. Except for a few disciples who walk down the mountain, they rarely participate. They say that they are for the sake of peace and meditation. In fact, they are still afraid of betting on the wrong treasure, and they may not get the chestnuts for the adults..."
A witch said in a solemn voice: "As for the Izumo royal family? Staying neutral has always been their tradition..."
Although the Izumo royal family does not control the Izumo real power, they still have the power to sacrifice. The major affairs of the country are only military and sacrifice. If you can control this half of the power, the daimyo must be respected on the surface.
Moreover, the emergence of the power of Qinghai is only a belief in the two counties, while some gods of Izumo are widely worshipped by the people of both countries. Although there have been ups and downs in history, in terms of background, it must definitely surpass the emergence of the power of Qinghai!
However, this time, King Izumo has already supported the Izumo royal family, and it is impossible to have more.
What's more, the Kyoto royal family only had one Izumo King. The other royal bloodlines, and even the nobles, were already enslaved by the Hiraki family and hid in Hirano Castle, which was in the city of Takaihiro.
Even Chiyo Fujiwara even received news that the other party intends to re-establish the "King of Heaven" in Izumo and fight with the King Izumo who defected to him.
When encountering this kind of division, even the gods of Izumo are helpless.
"Report!"
Suddenly, there was a riot outside, and a crowd in black stepped in and knelt down and said, "Mr. Naoe Izuki was taken by the enemy, and his head was hung on the cherry blossom trees in the city town..."
"hateful!"
Chiyo Fujiwara suddenly threw the cup: "Where is the murderer? Have you caught it?"
Naoe Izuha was only fifteen years old, but he was brave in combat and was the son of an important retainer. Chiyo Fujiwara always attached great importance to it, but unexpectedly, he did not die on the battlefield, but died under assassination.
"The murderer is a few ninjas, and the owner of Huajie Street and a few traveling girls are suspected of informing you!" The black-clad faces were as cold as ice, reporting coldly.
"Kill them all! The heads are piled on the roadside..."
Chiyo Fujiwara roared hysterically: "Let everyone in this county see what the outcome of the person who is enemies of our family!"
But he had the courage after all. After venting, he immediately calmed down: "In addition, give this city to the warriors who later defected to us, and order the army to prepare for retreat!"
This time, 20,000 people have come out, and thousands of people have lost. The morale is very depressed. It is indeed time to go back.
He sent troops this time half of his decision was made by himself, and half was possessed by his subordinate vassal lords.
But at this time, those people also realized that Hirano Castle cannot be captured in one day, right?
"But... I didn't even see the walls of Hirano Castle this time. I was really unwilling to accept it, very unwilling to accept it..."
Chiyo Fujiwara murmured and looked out the window.
I saw a bright moon hanging high, shining brightly, and it was clear and cold, and it seemed that it was not at all for the world.
“That’s…”
Looking at Chiyo Fujiwara, who was looking at the night view, suddenly his eyes narrowed and he looked at somewhere in the city.
There, the rippling fire rose into the sky, extremely conspicuous in the darkness.
"Where is... a grain warehouse? You can't go to put out the fire quickly!"
After a moment of stasis, Chiyo Fujiwara kicked the black-clothed people over and shouted loudly: "Who is responsible for guarding the grain warehouse tonight? Beheaded immediately... Don't he know that this is the life and death of our army?"
Because Ikki turmoil was in a turmoil, the practice of collecting food and fodder on the spot often costs the price of life.
The external grain transport routes are often attacked and suffered heavy losses, and the army's food supply is already very tight.
When the granary was burned, Chiyo Fujiwara's chest was depressed and almost vomited blood: "So...ruthless!"
Since ancient times, the poison of military use has never been more ruthless than water and fire, and it has been cut off from people's food!
